BONES ENTERS THE WORLD OF SURVIVALISTS
Monday’s episode of Bones is going to find Brennan near-death
and having visions of her dead mother. Heavy? You bet. Thankfully, Emily
Deschanel reports that despite an upcoming string of fairly drama-heavy
episode, they’re currently about to start work on one that’s pretty
much the opposite. “The next one we’re going to do is about
survivalists, people thinking the end of the world is coming and living
in a bunker,” she says. “They’re all kind of incestual and sleeping with
each other. So that’s kind of quirky and fun.” And dirty. “They’re all
passing syphilis to each other,” Deschanel says with a laugh.
But her show’s ability to weave the dark and light waters of
television so effortlessly over the past 8 seasons is something the
actress says has been a gift. “There’s always a light touch to the show,
which I think is unique in television. It’s a breath of fresh air, and
it’s good for us to do when we deal with death all the time,” she says,
adding that Brennan’s ability to be the source of humor is also an
unexpected but welcomed aspect to the character. “What she thinks is
hilarious is not necessarily hilarious to other people. So that’s fun to
play for sure.”
